Hi Elyse.

>I just purchased Stonefield Reports and am eagerly anticipating being able to give my users the ability to print any grid. But I've encountered a problem. My grid contains a memo field. If I print this field on the report, it stretches the detail band to the height of the memo field. I don't want this, so I want to eliminate the memo field from the report. I moved the memo field over to the far right of the grid and expanded the other columns so there wouldn't be room for the memo field to print on the report. It doesn't print, but the detail band still stretches to accommodate it as if it were printing.

Actually, the memo field is included in the report; it's just past the right edge of the page so it's not actually appearing.

The solution is to not use PRINTGRID.PRG but instead steal the code from that routine and modify it for your own purposes. For example, you could hard-code it to ignore the memo field by name, or you could create a generic version that simply ignored all memo fields.
